An efficient metal-free approach for the synthesis of functionalized biaryl-cored diarylmethanes is described by the ring transformation of 2H-pyran-2-ones using 4-phenylbutan-2-one as carbanion source. Moreover, 2H-pyran-2-ones were reacted with 1,3-diphenylacetone in the presence of base to achieve functionalized teraryl-cored diarylmethanes. All the ring transformation reactions were performed under mild reaction conditions to afford the biaryl- and teraryl-cored reaction products in high yields.

We report on the optimization of the alkoxylation of pyrrolidine-1-carbaldehyde by using a new electrochemical microreactor. Precise control of the reaction conditions permits the synthesis of either mono- or dialkoxylated reaction products in high yields.

Herein, we design and synthesize an array of benzofuro[3,2-c]quinolines starting from 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)quinolin-4(1H)ones via a sequential chlorination/demethylation, intramolecular cyclization pathway. This sequential transformation was efficient, conducted under metal-free and mild reaction conditions, and yielded corresponding benzofuro[3,2-c]quinolines in high yields. In vitro biological evaluation indicated that such type of compounds showed excellent antileukemia activity and selectivity, and therefore may offer a promising hit compound for developing antileukemia compounds.

An efficient and straightforward approach has been established for the preparation of new class of depsipeptide structures via isocyanide-based consecutive Bargellini/Passerini multicomponent reactions. 3-Carboxamido-isobutyric acids bearing an amide bond were supplied via Bargellini multicomponent reaction from isocyanides, acetone, and chloroform in the presence of sodium hydroxide. Next, via the Passerini multicomponent reaction strategy, a new class of depsipeptides was synthesized using the Bargellini reaction products, isocyanides, and aldehydes under environmentally benign reaction conditions. The prepared depsipeptides have more flexible structures than their pseudopeptidic analogs. Using cheap and readily available starting materials, mild reaction conditions, simple procedures, and high yields are the advantages of the present strategy.

AbstractA highly efficient nucleophilic addition–O-acylation–intramolecular Wittig reaction of β-trifluoromethyl α,β-enones is disclosed. This strategy features mild reaction conditions and provides a practical transition-metal-free method to a set of biologically significant trifluoromethylated furans in high yields with diverse functional groups.

A metal-free, ultrasound-assisted approach for the synthesis of highly functionalized 2-tetralones in high yields is described. The process involves ring transformation of 2H-pyran-2-ones with the spirocyclic ketone 1,4-cyclohexandione monoethylene ketal to yield spiro­cyclic ketals and subsequent acid-mediated hydrolysis. This protocol is free from any organometallic reagents, is economical and tolerates a wide range of functional groups.

AbstractPhosphonylation of alkenes is important for the generation of valuable organophosphines. However, redox-neutral difunctionalization of alkenes with readily available H-P(O) compounds remains underdeveloped. Herein, we report the first visible-light-driven redox-neutral phosphonoalkylation of alkenes. A variety of organophosphorus-containing three-membered carbocyclic scaffolds are synthesized from alkene-bearing alkyl sulfonates with H-P(O) compounds. The transition-metal-free protocol displays good functional group tolerance, broad substrate scope, high yields, and mild reaction conditions.

An ammonium iodide/hydrogen peroxide-mediated intramolecular oxidative amination of 3-aminoalkyl-2-oxindoles was achieved, affording the corresponding 3,2′-pyrrolidinyl spirooxindoles and their 6- or 7-membered analogous in moderate to high yields. This metal-free procedure features very mild reaction conditions, non-toxicity and easily handled hydrogen peroxide as a clean oxidant.

An efficient and practical transition-metal-free radical ­coupling reaction of sulfonyl hydrazides mediated by NIS/K2S2O8 has been developed to afford a variety of biological activity thiosulfonates in moderate to excellent yields. Compared to a known approach for the synthesis of thiosulfonates from sulfonyl hydrazides, this strategy features high yields, mild reaction conditions, and broad substrate scope. The mechanistic studies revealed that the procedure undergoes via a radical cross-coupling process for the construction of S–S bonds.
